Step-by-step explanation:
12g=12(2/3g-1)+ 11
12g=24/3g-12+11
12g-24/3g=-1
12g-8g=-1
4g=-1
g=-1/4
<span>With a boys to girls ratio of 8:7, this means 8/15 of the campers are boys and 7/15 of the campers are girls.
We are told that there are 195 total campers.
To find # of boys: 195 (the total # of campers) x 8/15 (fraction of the campers that are boys) = 104 boys
To find # of girls: 195 (total # of campers) x 7/15 (fraction of the campers that are girls) = 91 girls
Note: If you do not know how to multiply by fractions, let me know, I have another trick that takes more time but doesn't require the use of fractions.

Answer:
a)D= 0.625 Decimal that describes the portion of the workday he has finished
b)P= D*100= 0.625*100=62.5%
P: percentaje
D: Decimal
Step-by-step explanation:
Nomenclature
F: fraction of daily workday
D: decimal of daily workday
P: percentage of daily workday
Formulas
F= a/b
D= a÷b
P= D*100
Problem development
We have:
F = 5/8, then:
D= 5÷8= 0.625
To obtain the percentage of the workday that Matew has completed, we multiply the decimal x 100
P= 0.625*100=62.5%
You can multiply both sides by a number that will get rid of the denominators. For ex. you can multiply the first equation by 12 because 4 and 3 both go into 12 evenly. MAKE SURE YOU MULTIPLY THE OTHER SIDE BY 12 AS WELL! Therefore, 12(x/4) - 12(y/3) = 12(1), or 3x - 4y = 12
